Mild bewildered parties

Despite being a regular reader of Jeremy's LiveJournal, until Ms Y put me right I had somehow missed The Magic Chalet, a recent weekly strip based on our bizarre yet entirely civilised weekend at the Nightmare Before Christmas.

Well, *we* were entirely civilised: the same could not be said for some of our neighbours. But the memory of pan banging fire escape clanging 3am indie kid lynch mobs has faded, together with the memory of one of our number (naming no names) chucking up on a verge on the A12 on the way home. The Magic Chalet captures that hangover exquisitely, but focuses, as is entirely right and proper, on the splendid weekend which created it.
